Announcements and Reminders Announcements and Reminders

The Importance of Regular School Attendance

Students, we would like to remind you of the critical role that regular school attendance plays in your academic success.


Consistent attendance allows you to:

  1. Keep up with daily lessons and academic performance.
  2. Develop essential social skills and peer relationships.
  3. Participate in extracurricular activities that enrich your educational experience.


Missing school can lead to gaps in knowledge that become harder to fill as time goes on. Let's work together to ensure that you are here each day and benefit fully from the opportunities available at SKG.

Excused Absences

A student must bring a written note from the parent/guardian or healthcare provider providing an explanation for an absence. Notes must be turned in to the Attendance Office, and excused notes can be emailed to seckingerattendance@gcpsk12.org. Check-out notes for student drivers may not be emailed. After ten parent excuse notes in a school year, the school may request additional documentation, including doctor’s notes, to continue to excuse absences and tardies.

A school calendar guides the operations of the school district; it includes days when students and staff are in school and out of school. This year, GCPS is asking students, staff, and parents to review the four (4) available calendar options and vote on the calendar of your choice. You will be able to vote only one time. Each calendar option includes two (2) school year calendars: 2024-2025 and 2025-2026 school years. Use the links below and review each option carefully before casting your vote.


  • All SKG staff and parents have received an email with the calendar survey link. The link can be used one time.
  • All SKG students will vote on Thursday, October 18, in 7th period, with extended time due to Elementary and Middle School Early Release. The link for the calendar survey for students is on the students' portal page.

Instructional Resources Public Review Opportunity

Staff, students, families, and Gwinnett community members are invited to review and provide input on proposed instructional resources for select grades and courses in Mathematics, ESOL, and World Language. Before adopting instructional resources for classroom use, Gwinnett County Public Schools (GCPS) holds an extensive review. Multiple committees involving various stakeholder groups reviewed resources submitted by publishers for alignment with the school system’s Academic Knowledge and Skills (AKS) standards. During the ongoing review process, selected resources are piloted in GCPS classrooms. Data from the reviews and pilots will be considered in making adoption recommendations to the Board of Education in early 2024.


This public review will be available until October 31, 2023. We appreciate your participation.
